2010 NFL Draft: Cleveland Browns discussed with St.Louis Rams about No.1 pick. The Cleveland Browns knocked out of drafting a quarterback in next week’s 2010 NFL draft.

General manager Tom Heckert said Thursday that the team has talked to the St. Louis Rams about a trade that would get Cleveland the No. 1 overall pick, a selection the Browns would use to take Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford.

The Browns own the No. 7 pick and have five of the first 92 selections, so it’s realistic they could put together an attractive package to tempt the Rams into making a deal. 2010 NFL Draft

“We’ve actually played a little phone tag,” Heckert said. “We’ve talked to them throughout the process and have been at workouts with the Rams people and kind of mentioned stuff to them. Just talks. We’ve talked to all the teams ahead of us and all the teams immediately behind us”

Bradford is the cream of a QB crop that includes Colt McCoy, Jimmy Clausen and Tim Tebow. Bradford was the only one of those four who didn’t visit the Browns, but only because he had previously scheduled visits and couldn’t fit them into his travel path. 2010 NFL Draft
